THE.DETROITIWISH HEWS':
FAITH
OPEC's Failure a Good Omen for the .U.S.
By JOSEPH SHAPIRO
By MORRIS AMITAY
The quotation,. "Have faith in the Lord every day"
Brings to mind that men and women must pray
This in itself has a far reaching hand
-
With the knowledge they surely understand
Having faith in one's self has a tendency of awareness
Bringing men and women to preparedness
To take note of themselves, when an event arises
Which can bring to them quite often a few surprises
Faith recognizes no "religion" it is a strong belief
By believing in its power, it can offer relief
Circumstances can, develop when least expected
That's why faith is always respected
What is faith, what does it mean
Its true meaning can often be seen
Men and women of themselves they give
To others that are in need, so that they may live.
School Teaching Creationism
Michigan Superinten-
dent for Public Instruction
Philip Runkel presented a
report this week which said
that the Western School
District in Jackson County
was improperly teaching as
science the Biblical theory
of creation.
At the same time, the
state approved the distribu-
tion by the Hudsonville
School District of a two-
page handout entitled, "A
Biblical Account of the
Past." The handout is given
to 10th grade biology stu-

dents "in an attempt to pre-
sent the broadest amount of
information" the report
said. •
Runkel met with Western
School District officials to
discuss the report and
suggest changes in the way
that district handles the
theory of creation.
Iraqis Buy
French Missile
PARIS (JTA) — France
has agreed to sell Iraq 20
Exocet missiles similar to
those used effectively by
Argentina against the
British Navy during the
Falkland Islands war, and
six Super Standard combat
planes to deliver them, ac-
cording to the usually well-
informed French weekly Le
Canard Enchaine.
Diplomatic sources con-
firmed the report, saying it
fitted in with France's over-
all pro-Iraqi and pro-
Egyptian policy.

WASHINGTON —
OPEC'slailure to agree on
oil production cutbacks is
one of the more positive de-
velopments that has oc-
curred recently. Yet, many
"experts" would have us be-
lieve that lower oil prices
would be catastrophic to the
world financial system and
our own economy.
The truth is, the only real
losers from declining oil
prices are oil producers
themselves. American con-
sumers will benefit — and
so will our. nation's foreign
policy as it frees itself from
the threat of the "oil
weapon." After all, if it's bad
for the Saudis, can it really
be that bad after all?
There was some negative
news on the energy inde-
pendence front with the
Administration's an-
nounced intention to cut
back on filling our Strategic
Petroleum Reserve. Now is
not the time to let down our
guard against future oil
embargoes.
Senator. Bill Bradley of
New Jersey, who has been
an effective and articulate
leader in getting the reserve
filled, will undoubtedly lead
any Congressional at-
tempts to increase the fill
rate.

Senator Ernest "Fritz"
ilollings (D-S.C.) is the next
candidate in our series of
brief, analyse's of the
Presidential hopefuls. The
61-year-old former gover-
nor was elected to the Se-
nate in. 1966 and has used
his Budget, Appropriations
and Commerce Committee
assignments to gain a
measure of national promi-
nence.
Although he has never
taken the lead on foreign
policy issues, he was sup-
portive of a number of pro-
Israel initiatives in the
early 1970s, but by the
mid-1970s he was talking
about Israeli "intransi-
gence" and refused to sign
the "Letter of '76."
While supporting foreign
.aid bills containing assis-
tance for Israel, Hollings
was one of only a handful of
Senators to attend a 1976
meeting with a PLO repre-
sentative hosted by then
Sen. James Abourezk, an
outspoken critic of Israel.
Later, Hollings began vot-
ing against foreign aid, and
in 1978, voted for the sale of
F-15s to Saudi Arabia. But
in 1981, he voted against
the AWACS and related
equipment for the Saudis.

MIAMI — Meyer Lansky
left an estate of approx-
imately $110,000 to his
widow, two sons, a daughter
and a grandson.
In the past, law enforce-
ment officials had esti-
mated that the reputed
member of the organized
crime community, who died
Jan. 15, was worth up to
$300 million.
cratic nomination for the
Presidency, Hollings has
made a number of positive
statements designed to win
Jewish support which he
acknowledges as vital to his
success. In a recent New
York Times "op-ed" piece,
"Israel, Despite Begin,"
Hollings called for greater
appreciation of Israel's
strategic importance to the
U.S.
Overall, Hollings' record
on Israel must be rated as
"mixed," making his more
•
recent statements less cred-
ible. Normally, this South-
ern long-shot candidacy
would have been almost
completely discounted —
but the lesson of Jimmy
Carter necessitates not
writing Hollings off yet.
